Just another shoot...

It's nice to get out and about and there's no better place than outside in the fresh air. I remember when I was a kid I used to get my wellies and splash around the puddles, and since it rained all night last night I thought 'why not?'. So that is what my sister and I did, you are always a child at heart. Here are a few pics, and next entry is about the similar styled outfit and where you can buy it from.

Final Major project idea...

I need to start thinking of a idea for my foundation FMP, i had a few ideas in mind from the evolution of hair styles over the past century to the relationship and identity of between my sister and I. However this idea about gender identity/expression is one that im most curious about, i dont know alot about people who class themselves as male/female or just express them selves as male/female. This is something i will have to go out and explore, early days though, idea is not set in stone. Here is an photographer that has done a similar project before:


Emily Besa and Bernd Ott

Writer Emily Besa and photographer Bernd Ott have been traveling across five cities (Amsterdam, Berlin, London, Los Angeles and New York City) for their photography project ‘All The People’. This project involves meeting various individuals residing in these cities to discover how they define and convey their own gender identity. Besa explained “A lot of projects we found tend to focus on one aspect of being non-binary or non-conforming and we were particularly interested in relating the infinite possibilities of gender expression and identity. From the beginning we wanted to avoid any kind of labeling or categorization.”.The duo take a collaborative approach toward the project by letting interviewees choose the location in which they are photographed and how they portray themselves. 

Here are some photos from their project:

Plain Black

I know that i said on my last post that my next entry will be the style of the photoshoot but i realised that i just edited it making it look distorted. If you forget then here is a quick reminder: 

So yes, this was the start of my 'memory' project where i am trying to focus on the way memories can be changed by distorted. Hopefully it is going to be a good project but only time will tell, i need to do a lot more experimenting and research to get a clear idea of what I'm showing but i will always keep you guys up to date.

If my next entry is going to be about the style of this outfit then i should show you what the actual outfit is, so here are a couple of black and white edited photos of the shoot. Enjoy :)

New year, new memories to be made


Happy new year everyone, hopefully you all had a good break, I sure did. I did a initial fashion styled shoot for my next project at college, this project is about memories. When i thought of memories I instantly thought of distorted ones, so I used this shoot to experiment with a some of the best ones. Here are a couple of ones I've done already.
This is my lovely sister, isn't she pretty? So serious though. I have my next entry be about how I styled her, and every now and again I'll post updates of this project.
